Review from Nikki M (Mother of Child) published on 11 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The best nursery, amazing staff, home from home. I viewed quiet a few nurseries at the time and Red Robin Montessori hands down blew me away. I have peace of mind at work knowing my daughter is well looked after.


The staff are caring, friendly and super helpful. My little girl has developed and

learned loads in a short space of time and not to mention they are excellent at working with you to toilet train your toddler.
They serve healthy meals and have extra activities such as football and Spanish as well as guest speakers and activities on special dates.


My daughter loves going to the nursery every day and can't wait to see her friends and teachers.
The staff keep you informed of the activities via an online learning journal which I find to be super helpful and enjoyable to see my little girl so happy playing. Highly recommend this nursery! Also, it is a 5-minute walk from Thornton Heath station.

Review from Latoya C (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Fantastic nursery, amazing staff, very friendly and approachable. They take such a special interest in each child. It's very refreshing and assuring to see them share in the joy and excitement as your child achieves milestones.


My little one started in September 2021, he settled in perfectly, he

enjoys going in every day. It's comforting to see him excitedly want to go in each day.


His little personality shines through and it's good to see the staff sees this, it's apparent that they provide special one to one attention to each child.


They serve healthy and nutritious meals which my little enjoys. He also enjoys the extra activities such as dancing and football.


I'm extremely pleased that I choose this nursery for my little one.

My twin boys started at Red Robin in August shortly after turning one, when I returned to work. The staff have been excellent at helping them adjust to their new environment, and they now run in every morning in excitement!
The team have made us all feel very welcome and made the adjustment to their
new routine so smooth, it also helped me return to work, and feel a lot happier knowing how happy they are going to the nursery every morning. Thanks to all the staff at Red Robin, we are really grateful to you all for looking after our boys so well.

Review from Daniel H (Father of Child) published on 23 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having looked at all the nurseries in the surrounding areas which were a lot as I wanted to be certain I was making the right choice based on my son's needs. I was a typical worried parent with my son attending a nursery which we could trust and where he would get the best possible support that would
help further his development at his age. I'm very pleased in our decision to choose Red Robin as he loves it and all the members of staff are always pleased to see him and welcome him with a warmth you want to see as a parent. I'm already impressed with his progress so far that he's showing at Red Robin since he started beginning of January. I will look forward to seeing him grow as the times go on.


Really happy. Well managed and organised nursery.

Review from Sheena (Mother of Child) published on 4 August 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter who is 10 years old attended Red Robin when it first opened and my 4-year-old is on the verge of leaving to attend school. On both occasions, the nursery has more than met my expectations. The level of learning is second to none, the Montessori teaching is excellent. The staff are so caring
and the children pick up on their caring nature. My daughter is more than ready to start school, folding her clothes, tying her shoe laces and others! The staff especially in the year before they start school, really do prepare them, I have seen such a big difference in my daughter. The manager and the staff are so lovely and I am so sad that my daughter is leaving. To add, my 2 nephews also attend the nursery. I would definitely recommend this nursery!

Review from Mark A (Father of Child) published on 10 August 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
This is a welcoming, friendly and professionally well run nursery. Our child has been made extremely welcome and looks forward to their nursery days (3 days a week). The staff are very approachable and have made, and continue to make our child feel at ease whilst staying there. We are equally impressed
with the daily reports we receive, which tell us how our daughter has been/done/eaten etc. Likewise, on occasion when there has been an accident we are told about all the details which is very reassuring. This is a really well run nursery that we cannot recommend highly enough!

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.546)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.546) out of 10 for Red Robin Montessori is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 6 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.446 for Red Robin Montessori is calculated as follows: ( (56 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 83 Ratings = 4.446
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.1 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Red Robin Montessori is based on 6 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 = 3.6
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 number of registered child places is 12. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.5
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
